Simple Transactions provide a quick and easy transaction setup, enabling users to input or review details with limited fields.
Advanced Transactions allow additional details and fields, supporting complex transaction needs for users. These forms cater to those requiring additional calculations, reporting, relation of transaction with other objects in the system and so on.
